As Megumi shunpoed over to Ryozo she examined him, and saw multiple cut wounds over his body, from the pained expression on his face every time he took a breath in, she could guess he also probably has a few broken ribs, some other bones were probably broken as well due to the cero. "He needs medical attention right away.... Sorry Enji, but we got to retreat.." She mumbled to herself as she fired off a byakurai into the sky and did her best to raise Ryozo to his feet supporting him with her shoulder.

Enji was on his last leg as he was growing exhausted from all the running around and searching futilely for the source and thought that at this point it was too late. He gasped heavily to catch his breath and turned in order to fire the signal, but saw there was no need as he spotted the byakurai high in the sky from Megumi and Ryozo's direction. It seemed one of them had the same idea and had no choice but to give up on the mission and started making his way back, though had to be careful to avoid any groups of hollows for his body wasn't in a good state to battle. They simply weren't ready to handle something of this magnitude and was glad the gillian was gone, however it was taken out.

Fifteen minutes passed before he finally reached them and was relieved to see both of them; Ryozo was in a bad state, but still alive.'Megumi..I'll..carry him. You should try to keep the way clear for us.'He panted while speaking and knelt down besides Ryozo to check him over as he could see just how bad a state he was in and required immediate medical attention.'Its..too much...for us anyway. We'll retreat and report to the captain.'He grit his teeth as he draped Ryozo as gently as he could over his shoulders and stood up with a faint grunt as he nearly stumbled a bit with his breathing ragged and legs weak and trembling. Still, they had to get moving or be surrounded with no chance of escape and lifted Ryozo as much as he could.'O-ok..lead the way.'He nodded to Megumi then glanced at Ryozo; hating to see him like that and wouldn't let this be the end for neither of them.
